Things I want to replace:
*Full Exhaust system from the Manifold to tail pipe so I can pass E-check. It has a Header of some sort on it that will be coming off.
*Radiator as some one put leak stop in it and have large amounts of deposits. Just picked this Bad Boy up tonight
Install this weekend or tomorrow if time permits.
*All 4 ball joints
*Inner tie rod
*Full Fluid flush http://www.amsoil.com/mygarage/Produ...OYOTA+PICKUP+L

I am ready to take short flight and long ride home in that truck. Bet it was great. You just dont see them that clean. Great score. Really like seeing what an orginal truck looks like.

Oh my god, to say that your truck is beautiful would be the understatement of the year. I'm curious, what kind of tires are those? I've never seen that tread pattern before.

You can only get these if you are in the west coast.
31x10.5x15
I want to change these out to a radial or something more street worhty. Might be getting rid of the set wheels/tires but who knows.
